This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled phonet: no longer hold RTNL in route_dumpit() to the 6.6-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: phonet-no-longer-hold-rtnl-in-route_dumpit.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.6 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit db58c961107e1a238ff1e7066fb6cc1ccac10cf1 Author: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue May 7 12:17:48 2024 +0000 phonet: no longer hold RTNL in route_dumpit() [ Upstream commit 58a4ff5d77b187086eb12d41d613749420947f19 ] route_dumpit() already relies on RCU, RTNL is not needed. Also change return value at the end of a dump. This allows NLMSG_DONE to be appended to the current skb at the end of a dump, saving a couple of recvmsg() system calls.
